Third Farm Baby Arrived




The third calf arrived September 28th in the early morning hours. Thank the Lord, the momma didn't have any problems. The little bull, named Junior, is doing very well. He is strong for just being several days old. Larry had a trying time holding him while his brother banded him ( making him a steer). The next day when Larry went out to feed the cows, Junior mowed at him several times, Larry said "like he was mad at me". I told Larry he probably was mad at him for making him a sissy! lol He is more active than the heifers were at this age, but it was hotter when they were born.
We don't have the horse Angel anymore. Marty gave her to a friend. He just didn't have time to work with her. When he did try to ride her, she had an attitude, and Marty didn't need any possible accidents to happen. Owning a business is very demanding, especially when you are the main worker.
We seem to have gone straight from summer to winter, like earlier this year we went straight from winter to summer. What's going on with this weather? If this summer was a preview of the Devils House, I sure don't want to reside there! Today, October 3rd 2010, there is a north wind blowing and it was a cool 52 at 8 o'clock this morning with the sun out. Kinda feels good though.
